Sa'idi Arabic is the variety of Arabic spoken by Sa'idis south of Cairo, Egypt to the border of Sudan. It shares linguistic
features both with Egyptian Arabic, as well as Sudanese Arabic. Dialects include Middle and Upper Egyptian Arabic. Speakers
of Egyptian Arabic do not always understand more conservative varieties of Sa'idi Arabic. Sa'idi Arabic carries little prestige
nationally though it continues to be widely spoken, including in the north by rural migrants who have partially adapted to
Egyptian Arabic. For example, the Sa'idi genitive exponent is usually replaced with Egyptian bitāʿ, but the realization of
/q/ as [ɡ] is retained . Second and third-generation Sa'idi migrants are monolingual in Egyptian Arabic, but maintain cultural
and family ties to the south. |
